Still it's wrong...does God need you to talk so he can understand you?. Does he really know everything? If yes then guru is Right,u don't need to talk just be still what ever plans he has for u will happen,the theory of talking is a theory of us human beings, we know each other more by talking and interaction with each other,but that's not how I believe a God can be place, provided he is the master of wisdom or ever knowing he needs not your gratitude for if he has given you something and you are thankfull about it,he will know even when u did not say it,if you needed food he wi Kno even when u didn't ask,but when u say you want Lord I want to say thank you for bla bla bla.. it means you want to let him Kno that u are greatfull in short through doing that what you are trying to say is,he doesn't know that you are greatfull so u have to say thank you to him ,if u won't he might not give you again,so to make that make sense to us human beings,we decided to take a God and place him with attributes of a human where we don't understand and of a God where we don't. "U can never teach your father how to make a baby".

[@ky6864]

@STRIPES It’s the English language, Catholicism and Protestantism make God as a patriarchal and dominant figure. In Eastern Orthodox, God is considered as a confidant In Chinese language the pronoun for God has no gender I just wanna get close to God coz I care, love and respect him. So to me God isn’t simply something so high up and control everything, instead, he has his human aspect Let’s say I’ve a very close friend who knows me so well, I wouldn’t think since he/she knows me so well, I’m not gonna thank him/her even I want to. And I feel this way to God too

[@emem1486]

That's right, God wants all of his Creations to talk to him and have a relationship with Him, otherwise why would He make Them and how would there be love between Them? And God may have everything already written but as we premeditate our destiny, only prayer can change fate. The point that is being diluted is that God may answer peoples prayers in different ways as He knows best and is the best of planners.

[@oliverkeverenge9819]

It depends with the content of the prayer. Most people pray to ask God for this or that. We should pray to worship God and ask for His will to be done, not ours. As much as the Bible says we should make our petitions known to God, it also says that God knows our hearts. He already knows what we want. So we should spend more time exemplifying him so as to fully experience the rest. That's why the Bible says seek first the Kingdom of God and the rest shall be added to you. You cannot seek the Kingdom without listening, because we currently don't know much about it. That's why meditation is important as it allows us to listen.

[@misipikler7844]

BG 4.11: In whatever way people surrender unto me, I reciprocate with them accordingly. Everyone follows my path, knowingly or unknowingly, O son of Pritha. So basically it's not about the way you choose to approach God, it's the will to meet Them what matters.

One should not prayer God,Everyone should Love God.

[@JuniVerse_Official]

But we pray to get out of our problems..... to whom we can reach for help if not God....

[@gwendolynsmith284]

Not only do we pray to get out of our problems... we also pray to give God Glory! He is our creator and prayer is much different then meditation. Meditation is a way to clear our minds and relieve our bodies of stressors, but Prayer is a way to glorify our creator for allowing us life overall! Be encouraged.

Dear friends,Noha didn't survive of his own he was saved by the Almighty by just obeying to act according to the plans God gave him.prayer is not telling god about your idea but yelling to help for fulfilling the needs according to gods wish. In other words power to do things in the right and just way according to God the Almighty's wish.

What he meant was we don't have to tell God to help him. He is taking care of you already And yes as a gratitude we can always pray..

[@parthjayesh4240]

That’s what praying is, just reciting the creation of god and showing gratitude towards god. You shouldn’t ask god what u need from him because he has written down your life and all the bad and good in your life will happen for a reason. Sadhguru’s title is misleading.. it should say stop praying about your needs to god

[@Kk12317]

Mind is a great tool for Creation, It can either assist Creation or Resist Creation, the only purpose is to make the mind assist in the Creation of well being. One must know the proper use of mind, and with most of us, praying for this and that we often build up more resistance which restricts our ease and well being in the present moment. That’s why Sadhguru keeps saying your intelligence is working against you. “Deepen and broaden your awareness of yourself and All the blessings will flow. You need not seek anything, All will come to you most naturally and effortlessly.” ~ Shri Nisargadatta Maharaj

[@narayaniyer7363]

Praying to God means you are subconsciously affirming your separation from Him. That is contradictory to what you want to originally accomplish (oneness with Him). Hence "shutting up" or being still or silence is the only sensible act that supports the objective of uniting with Him. What a relief when one discovers/realizes there is no need to pray!

[@elizanekrui4988]

Thank you very much for the insight. But as a parent, I love to hear my 5 year old son express his thoughts to me. I enjoy listening to him, no matter how crazy or funny. How much more does our father in heaven who created us with a free will- wants to have an active, not passive relationship with us - although He knows everything, even our thoughts. I do believe we must often 'shut up' to let go and let God. But ultimately, I believe God wants a personal relationship with each one of us. And prayer is to me a basic way of giving form to that relationship.

Prayer isn't just about asking for help... but also to thank for... Prayer keeps us connected, the fear of the creator will keep us grounded and v can always be taking the right path. This is my interpretation of prayer.

I believe in prayers . As prayers always work . I don't throw ideas on God I just request to end my suffering or my deprivation for something. Then most of the times like 99.9 percent I get what I request. Prayers make a string connection between God and the person. I just can't sit and wait and see when my particular painful situation ends. Sometimes my prayers worked within minutes . Things that were considered almost impossible happened after I made prayers

[@khushwantgehlot8726]

This was a great definition to meditation given by Sadhguru.
